This Week in Switch 2 will allow for all of the Shacknews staff members to share their opinions of the hardware, games, and operating system on a weekly basis. Instead of rushing to get a review-in-progress posted, Shacknews has chosen to take our time with the Nintendo Switch 2 as well as Mario Kart World in the interest of providing useful review content. This Week in Switch 2 will allow all of us to share our latest impressions of the console instead of remaining silent as the review work continues.

Be sure to read Donovan's Donkey Kong Bananza hands-on preview article. Head over to our Shacknews YouTube channel to keep up to date on the latest Switch 2 news and gameplay videos.
